I love autumn… I even like the rain, the grayness of the sky… I like the morning breeze, the coldness of an autumn day… I like the intensity and the chemistry of the autumn colors… Red, Gray, Orange…

Lucy Maud Montgomery described my exact feelings in her journal:

“The summer is over now. It is October and autumn. We are having delightful fall days, misty and purple, with a pungent, mellow air and magnificent sunsets, followed by the rarest of golden twilights and moonlit nights floating in sliver. Maple and birch are crimson and gold, and the fields sun themselves in aftermaths. But it is autumn and beautiful as everything is, it is the beauty of decay – the sorrowful beauty of the end.”

Enjoy the season…
